our image of God

Found this via Kalanna who got the idea from T.O. who suggests:

And here's your challenge! Post your own image of God to your blog, and pass this meme onto your blogging friends! I'd suggest that unless you have a picture of your own in mind, or you are artistically gifted and can draw your image of God, try Google Images or Yahoo Images. (Be sure to cite your source!) Let's see how many unique images of God we can collect, and how many people share a similar and a completely dissimilar image of God. If you participate in this exercise, please let me know in the comments so I can check out your image of God at your blog!

I have to admit I have more than one, but I will try to limit it to one, maybe two later on - please let me know in the comments, as well, if you participate so I can see what you've done; I think this is a wonderful idea.

I've often thought of God and nature at the same time for too many reasons to count. I believe in what was written through the prophet Isaiah (55:8-9)

For my thoughts are not your thoughts, nor are your ways my ways, says the LORD. As high as the heavens are above the earth, so high are my ways above your ways and my thoughts above your thoughts.

Factoring this Scripture verse in, I always thought of God in the sky - especially when I was a child, when rays of light were obvious then they'd become "Spirit Skies." I simply expanded on that *theory* as an adult - show me a ray of light, I'll think I've seen God...
